Lyrics to the song: PAINTING WHITE ROSES
I'm painting white roses
While love passes by,
I wait each day and I sigh.
Sometimes they stay a while but soon they all fly,
So I paint my white roses and cry.

I paint them blue for I am sad
And paint them red when I am mad;
I paint every rose in my sight.

I paint them black when I feel hate
And paint them gray, I fear my fate;
There's hardly a petal left white.
There's hardly a petal left white.

I'm painting white roses while love stays away,
But they will return so they said.
But I can't be waiting for hopes of that day,
So I'm painting white roses instead.
So I'm painting white roses instead.
